This is from the portion of the trail near Bear's Den Lodge, close to where Highway 7 crosses into west Virginia.

I have a tiny watercolor set and a small pad of Montval watercolor paper that travel very easily, plus a few brushes with hollow squeeze handles that carry their own water. Very easy to travel or hike with.

I've been working with "lifting off " techniques, which the Montval paper does very well.
